Leadership Report

Insight into an individual’s style and potential in a leadership role

What’s in the Report?

The Leadership Reports provide valuable insight into an individual’s leadership potential, indicating their work styles, strengths and preferences relating to leadership roles.

Derived from years of experience and research, this model is designed to help identify personality characteristics that are typically associated with successful leadership, and how these might determine the leadership style that the individual is likely to adopt.

The Leadership Report is predominantly used by line managers, HR colleagues and coaches.

Report Pages

Summary Page and Leadership Model Overview

The first page of the report consists of a striking graphic, displaying the individual’s leadership potential profile across each of the 12 attributes and 4 quadrants. This allows you to eyeball within which areas the individual may hold the most potential in terms of possessing traits and qualities associated with successful leadership.

It is important to note that the model does not provide a comprehensive assessment of all leadership competencies; it focuses on potential. The skills and qualities required of individual leaders may also differ depending on the role and the context, and organisations naturally require different capabilities from their leaders at different times. The report is a valuable tool but because of these differences, you should be careful to consider this and interpret the information in the light of these specific needs.

Exploration Pages

There is one exploration page for each of the four quadrants. Each page explores the three associated elements of successful leadership. Their score is provided, along with a brief overview of what the leadership attribute would look like in the workplace and a comprehensive paragraph covering where certain traits may act as a strength or potential area of concern when having to lead others and drive the organisation forward.

This will help inform you of a potential leader’s ability to succeed in a leadership role based on the results of their personality questionnaire and tendencies in the workplace.
